READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST
If you have been given an Answer Booklet, follow the instructions on the front cover of the Booklet.
Write your Centre number, candidate number and name on all the work you hand in.
Write in dark blue or black pen.
You may use a soft pencil for any diagrams or graphs.
Do not use staples, paper clips, highlighters, glue or correction fluid.
Answer all the questions.
Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place in the case of angles in
degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.
The use of an electronic calculator is expected, where appropriate.
You are reminded of the need for clear presentation in your answers.
At the end of the examination, fasten all your work securely together.
The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question.
The total number of marks for this paper is 50.
Questions carrying smaller numbers of marks are printed earlier in the paper, and questions carrying larger
numbers of marks later in the paper.
This document consists of 3 printed pages and 1 blank page.

The polynomial x3 + ax2 + bx + 6, where a and b are constants, is denoted by p(x). It is given that
(x − 2) is a factor of p(x), and that when p(x) is divided by (x − 1) the remainder is 4.
(i) Find the values of a and b.
[5]
(ii) When a and b have these values, find the other two linear factors of p(x).
